Good news for iOS users. Capcom’s famous blue bomber is coming your way this month. Mega Man X is making it’s way onto iDevices with what looks like a rather different art style than it’s console counterparts. Mega Man X for iOS will be based on the “current feature phone version” of the game.

Special features unique to the touch screen will include GameCenter support for ranking and 80 challenges to complete.

No word on an official release date yet, but be sure to keep your eyes out and check out the rest of the screen shots over at Famitsu.

In the meantime however, we can tease ourselves just a little bit more with some of the soundtrack of the game which has become available on soundcloud. The page features several tracks from the game available for either streaming or downloading. The tracks are available for free at the moment so head on over and jam out to those and some remix contest winners.

According to the page, the full soundtrack will be available in January or February 2012. Is this indicative to when we might see the game released? One could only hope.

You might remember the well-received title Nimbus when it was released on PC last year. Well, it looks like PSN users will get their chance to make their way through the racing/puzzle game soon.

Noumenon Games revealed yesterday that they’re working with Sony to bring an enhanced version of the game, titled Nimbus+ to PSN. The game will feature improvements to “areas that were lacking” in the PC version or cut due to lack of time; as well as new content.

The game places you in control of a flying object. The goal is to make your way through the levels and solve the puzzles along the way that will allow you to get there. The object must interact with the environment or other objects to keep flying.

Noumenon is planning on bringing the improvements added to Nimbus+ to the PC, but which features will be added is still undecided.

It may be time to prepare your thumbs for some serious crafting. As if the Minecraft 1.6 update wasn’t exciting enough, the creator of the game, Markus “Notch” Persson posted an image on Twitter this morning showing a “Pocket Edition” of the game running on Sony Ericsson’s Android powered Xperia Play gaming smartphone.

The game appears to have graphics on par with the desktop version, which makes one wonder if the game will be compatible with the current wave of multiplayer Minecraft servers.

It seems we’ll have to wait for E3 for a live demo, but Mojang was nice enough to post some footage up on Youtube today. Be sure to check it out if you haven’t already.

Sony has announced a new type of product that some people may say is a step toward the future. The recently revealed Sony S2 clam-shell tablet comes equipped with dual 5.5-inch displays able to work en masse or independently to accomplish that multi-tasking you couldn’t quite achieve with your current tablet. This could be especially useful for games where it would be advantageous for one screen to be bound to the display while the other houses the controls and game stats; or times where you may want two apps like a notepad and web-browser open at the same time.

The S2 will run Android 3.0 Honeycomb and allow access to the much anticipated PlayStation Suite allowing you to play classic PSOne titles as well as the plethora of games available on the Android Market. Rumors say the device will boast 3G connectivity, dual-core Tegra 2 processors, and a rear-facing camera. The rumors also state the S2 will retail for what translates to about $824 which may seem a bit steep to some.

The tablet will allow access the PlayStation Network and use DLNA to send content to wireless enabled speakers or televisions.

The device has a UK release date of “Autumn 2011″ so keep your eyes peeled for more details coming soon.

It’s not really a shocking surprise, but a recent survey taken by Google’s AdMob has revealed that the most common task those blessed with a tablet have been using them for is to relieve some stress blowing up their enemies or solving the latest puzzle. The survey — which polled over 1400 users — showed that 84% of tablet users are using their hardware for gaming among other tasks.

It’s not as if we don’t know the main appeal of smart mini-device operating systems and their capabilities; though, it is surprising to see that the majority of tasks on the devices are for personal entertainment. Oddly enough, the survey showed that only 51 percent are taking advantage of the multimedia capabilities of their devices.

Expressing my own opinion here, I’d venture to say tablets (especially once the market is even further saturated with them) may be able to take in a much larger part the gaming market that Apple’s iOS or Google’s Android have been aiming for, and maybe even get into some of the traditional handheld gaming market. The tablet offers users a gaming experience that can not be achieved through other gaming hardware; a large interactive area which can be used for whatever the developer’s imagination desires. We’ve already seen new types of interactive storybooks and a unique set of games. This platform — especially with more powerful hardware — will also allow for more traditional games (like the titles to be available on Sony’s Playstation Suite for Android devices) to be brought over as well; or even better, a combination of both.

These features, the advancement of the power of the hardware being used to run these devices, and best of all, the option for developers to explore new ways of controlling their games without publisher pressure indicates to me a very strong future for tablets as a new kind of portable gaming device. Look forward to the future Extra Guy readers. It’s gonna get crazy.
